Main Topic: Wearable Parts

Jeff and I have always preached maintenance for your rig. Well, what does that mean? What needs maintaining?

What are parts that will last a long time, but need attention every once in awhile vs a part that might need maintenance once a year?

What do I need to monitor on my rig?
Jeff seems to have had some serious issues that he has discovered. Luckily he found them before the where major problems.

Budgeting for rebuilds and repairs?

Sounds like Jeff needs to upgrade to a HP Dana 70 front or build a custom 14 bolt front. What brand gears is he running that he keeps chipping teeth off of?

Hi guys love the show and the addition of Forrest hope everything's going great. I particularly loved the episodes you did on overlanding and off-road trailers. Would love to hear more content on overlanding in general. Have you guys thought about an episode on roof top tents? I'm in the market right now and have been considering the local brands like CVT and Tepui. Any suggestions? Do you guys run a RTT?
Thanks again keep up the great work.

Thread of the Week
Rattling sound from my jeep!
my 2011 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited started making this rattling sound a few days ago. The sound reminds me of a baseball card on a bike spoke. The first day the sound started in was only when pressing the accelerator and now 2 days later it's only when idling. i haven't got to do much investigating yet to attempt to find out where exactly the sound is coming from but I'm doing that tomorrow morning. I am pretty much clueless when it comes to automotive stuff but I'd really like to change that. Anyone had something similar happen and maybe have some advice?
